Televes DAT BOSS LR Mix U/V-Hi/V-Lo Antenna 60 mile range (148383)

Televes DAT BOSS LR Mix Low-VHF/High-VHF/UHF TV Antenna (148383)

Best For

Long-range and fringe over-the-air TV installations that need directional low-VHF, high-VHF, and UHF reception with built-in automatic amplification and interference filtering.

Why Choose the Televes DAT BOSS LR Mix?

The DAT BOSS LR Mix combines Televes' directional triple-boom antenna design with a built-in TForce/BOSS preamplifier that automatically adjusts delivered signal levels. It can receive weak signals while managing stronger signals to help reduce overload in changing reception conditions.

Key Benefits

• Low-VHF, high-VHF, and UHF TV reception
• Designed for U.S. TV channels through RF 36
• Built-in TForce/BOSS low-noise preamplifier with automatic gain control
• Independent VHF and UHF amplification
• FM and LTE/5G interference filtering
• Active amplified or passive operation
• Included low-consumption UL-listed power supply with two outputs
• Aluminum, stainless-steel, and ABS construction

Who Should Buy the 148383?

OTA viewers and professional installers dealing with distant or mixed-strength low-VHF, high-VHF, and UHF stations who need a high-gain directional antenna with integrated automatic amplification.

Installation Notes

Approximate assembled dimensions are 82.8 x 70 x 29 inches. In a power failure or with amplification off, the antenna can operate in passive mode. Actual reception depends on terrain, obstructions, transmitter power, frequency, installation height, aiming, and local conditions.

• The DAT design, based on 3 Yagi antennas with asymmetric directors, provides great directivity as well as an optimal anti-echo radiation pattern
• Special double-U dipole: it's open/close format provides optimal frequency response flatness
• A fully shielded switch box protects the BOSS system from impulsive noise; grounded for full protection against electrical discharge
• Manufactured in aluminium (stainless) for a long service life
• Fully automated manufacturing in Europe under the most stringent quality controls: a synonym of high reliability
• Two work mode options: Intelligent low power consumption mode or passive mode (lack of power supply).

TForce technology:
Televes transitions from the traditional silicon era into a new era of electronic component design, allowing integrated circuits to be precisely manufactured for microwave frequency bands. Utilizing “State of the Art” MMIC technology TForce is manufactured using semiconductor compounds such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), providing the resulting products with unparalleled features and performance

Televes has reinvented the antenna concept. Until now, an antenna was just the reception component of a TV installation in which gain and directivity were the main features. The introduction of a smart device like BOSS provides the antenna with the capacity to receive very weak signals without the risk of being affected by very strong signals, the result is a dynamic balance between weak and strong signals that provides optimum signal levels at all times: the "dynamic range" concept turns out to be the most outstanding among quality parameters.

The creation of TForce with BOSS technology using MMIC components is an extraordinary milestone in the optimization of the dynamic range. The technology that allowed the reception of lost signals from distant satellites is now allowing the enhancement of the coverage range in DTT installations.
